Your Community Pediatric Specialists in Greater Atlanta

Sick & Well Visits

When your child isn’t feeling quite like themselves or you’re keeping up with yearly check-ups, knowing you have a trusted pediatrician by your side makes all the difference. At Prestige Pediatrics, we offer both sick visits and annual wellness exams, serving newborns through young adults up to age 21. Our team understands how stressful it can be when your child feels unwell or when it’s time to track their healthy milestones.

That’s why our services are designed to give you guidance, reassurance, and answers for every stage of your child’s development. Our doctors and nurses live and work in your community, giving Prestige Pediatrics a true hometown feel. We work closely with families from all backgrounds, including those in Pickens County and the Greater Atlanta area, where about one in four families uses Medicaid or Peach State Health Plan. We value a warm, supportive environment where you and your child can feel welcome and heard. When you need advice or a pediatric specialist near me, our friendly team is here for you with care that goes beyond the basics.

If your child needs a wellness check doctor, urgent care center, or you’re wondering “Where’s the best pediatrician Jasper, GA has to offer?” – request an appointment today. Your child’s health is our passion, and supporting your family is our mission.

Comprehensive Sick & Well Visits for Your Child’s Health

Caring for children involves more than just treating the sniffles or giving routine shots. At Prestige Pediatrics, we look at the whole child and family—from infants taking their first steps to teenagers transitioning into adulthood. We offer:

  • Sick Visits: If your child wakes up with a fever, sore throat, cough, or other sudden symptoms, call our practice or book online for a same-day or next-day “sick visit near me.” We diagnose and treat everything from common colds, ear infections, and rashes to stomach bugs and minor injuries.
  • Wellness Exams: Annual wellness exams, sometimes called a “wellness physical exam,” track your child’s growth, development, and health. These yearly visits give us a chance to get to know your family, spot issues early, and offer guidance for nutrition, development, and mental health.
  • Minor Injury Care: If your child has a minor injury or urgent concern outside typical clinic hours, our urgent care center is here to provide prompt, thoughtful attention. For more serious emergencies, we’ll guide you on the next best steps for care.
  • School, Camp, and Sports Physicals: Need a wellness check doctor to complete forms or provide up-to-date records? Our staff supports families with thorough exam documentation for schools, athletic programs, and camps.
  • Chronic Health and Preventive Care: We support our patients with chronic issues such as asthma (visit our Asthma Management page for details), allergies, and nutritional concerns. Our approach emphasizes event prevention and healthy habits for the entire family.

We believe that physical health is deeply linked to emotional well-being. That’s why our team is trained to screen for mental health concerns like anxiety and depression, which are especially important for children and teens. When you bring your family to Prestige Pediatrics, you’re choosing a partner who supports the health of the whole child.

We accept most commercial insurance plans in addition to Medicaid and Peach State. We want every family to have access to high-quality pediatric care, regardless of financial background or zip code.

Finding an “urgent care near me” or connecting with a pediatrician Jasper GA trusts is simple. Book online, call our clinic, or check out our Locations page for the clinic closest to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a sick visit and a wellness exam?

A sick visit is scheduled when your child is feeling unwell or showing new symptoms like fever, cough, vomiting, or rash. The visit focuses on diagnosis and treatment for sudden illnesses or minor injuries. Wellness exams, on the other hand, are yearly check-ups where your child gets a thorough assessment of growth, development, hearing, vision, and more. Both are essential parts of pediatric healthcare, and our providers are skilled in making children comfortable, whatever the reason for your visit.

Can I schedule a same-day sick visit if my child wakes up feeling unwell?

Yes! We understand that children can become sick quickly and that waiting makes things harder for everyone. Our clinic offers same-day or next-day sick visit appointments, and you can call us or use our online scheduling tool. Walk-in visits are welcome when possible, especially for urgent needs, but calling ahead helps us prepare and minimize your wait time.

Does my child need both a wellness physical exam and a sports physical for school or camp?

Many schools and camps require a specific sports or camp physical, but in most cases, a comprehensive annual wellness exam meets those requirements. If you need a special form completed, bring it to your appointment, and we’ll help with the paperwork. Wellness checks are a great time to address any extra concerns you have about your child’s activity level or readiness for a new sport.

How can I get started with a pediatric specialist near me?

We know that life with kids is busy, so we make it easy to schedule. You can book appointments online, call our office, or visit in person. Check our Locations page to find the office nearest you. We look forward to caring for your child soon!
